To quote Squatty Potty Marketers: “The modern day toilet is convenient, but has one major fault; it requires us to sit. While sitting to do our business may be considered “civilized”, studies show the natural squat position improves our ability to eliminate.

Hey, it’s basic anatomy, who are we to disagree?

So again, kudos to the creative geniuses at Squatty Potty for making undeniably one of the most brilliant social media marketing campaigns of all time.
